I was VERY disappointed in our experience at The Statehouse. The host and waiter seemed inexperienced and lacked the professionalism i would expect in a restaurant of this nature. We were seated at a table so small there wasn't enough room for our food despite the fact that there were plenty of larger tables for 2 available. We had reservations but no choice in where we sat.
The drinks were terrible. I sent my lemon drop martini back as it appeared to be nothing more than flavored vodka. Our waiter acted irritated that I sent it back. My wife ordered a Cosmo that had a nasty aftertaste.
The food was mediocre. The beef tenderloin was a good quality cut of meat but it was under cooked. My wife ordered braised ribs with root vegetables. The ribs were ok but the root vegetables were nearly raw and almost impossible to eat.
The waiter was inattentive and indifferent. We were over half finished with our meals before he asked how our food was. We had to ask for both the drinks menu and the desert menu.
The only positive thing I can say is that the mashed potatoes were delicious.
Needless to say, we won't be going back.
